and the winner is………

I hope you are all well – not sure what the weather is meant to be doing where you are, all I keep hearing about is a heatwave. Well down here in Kent, it is warm, overcast and blustery!

Yesterday I gave you an insight to “behind the scenes at Clarity”, and over the next few weeks I will introduce you to more of the team.

Time really does fly here at Clarity Towers, it feels like only yesterday when I joined the “family” officially and that was back in January 2016!

I remember lots of people sending me messages and coming up to me at various retail shows saying how great it must be to turn my hobby of making cards into a job. I always knew when I decided to join Clarity that making cards would be a small part of my role. The company was growing and help was needed, so I jumped in head first! I am not one for titles, but I do have one, Operations Manager – three and a half years later I am still trying to work out what that means! My roles are varied, and include dealing with TV proposals, working out product costs, dealing with manufacturers, looking after Pergamano (yes I’m still Perga Man!) demonstrating at retail shows, appearing on TV. The list continues and the roles continue to change.

I remember 6 months in saying that I wish I had made the decision sooner. Do I still say that now? Absolutely!

Anyway, the response to my question from Saturday’s Blog blew me away. A BIG Thank You to everyone that answered.

The guys in the office had a count up and here are the results:

1st: Groovi, 49%

2nd: Stamps, 28%

3rd: Dies, 16%

4th: Stencils, 7%

We put all the names in a big box……………

The winner was chosen at random from this huge pile of entries!

and the winners is……………………………………………

Congratulations Jennifer Pickard!

Congratulations Jennifer, please contact the office and they will issue you with a £20 Clarity Gift Voucher. You may want to take advantage of July’s Products of the Month, or if you are a Club Member take advantage of the recent additions to the Club Members Sale

Now that I know you price up the products I buy you will have to accept the blame for me never having any money. That’s because I keep buying Clarity craft goodies. That’s why I have renamed the Groovi club as “I will never have any money again club”.

The response to the question was phenomenal, you must have been very pleased.
Congratulations Jennifer – lots of lovely goodies coming up for you to use the voucher.
Drat, drat, drat – I’ve recently indulged in the 12×12 papers and my folders are full – cannot justify buying more 😰 even at this generous price, hubby won’t let me!!!
My club envelope arrived this morning and I’ve been playing with the die and stamp, too hot and sticky for parching.
Have a good evening 🍒🍒🍒

Well done Jennifer.
I was trying to be good and not buy too much .. not much chance of that😁
I’m afraid Icouldnt resist the 12×12 papers in the sale.. it will keep me stocked up for a while. That’s what I’m telling myself anyway..😁

Congratulations Jennifer, enjoy spending your voucher.
As the saying goes Paul, time flies when you are having fun. Order sent in this morning after I had received my ‘’happy ‘’ post & seen the new additions to the sale. That’s me on the naughty step for awhile 😂 until I looked at the calendar & saw what is coming up this week on the tv, might just be another order going in!!
Sun is shining here with a breeze but that is very welcome. I think it is going to be a night to have the fan on!! Sticky already.

Well done Jenifer!
I think I would like a Paul! Always to the rescue and a man of many talents. I love it when Barbara calls your name Paul! Paul! and the job is done. Well done Paul! Definitely need a Paul or Man Friday!

Hi Paul, glad you enjoy your work. It sure does help in life if you are blessed with a job you enjoy. As for your job roles, you forgot one, Brenda’s MSDS and other unusual questions and needs man (very patient man)!!!😉 I’ve got some more I need…

As for the weather, too hot and humid up here for me and Daisy, and that’s in the cooler inside the house! Mind you it doesn’t take much heat to make me struggle, true Scot me, I can get heat/sun stroke even up here!!!

I’m on the naughty step, I succumbed to 3 of the paper pads, and some fresco paints… That’s my no crafty spending halo well and truly broken, 3rd order this month, but the first 2 were mostly birthday money, so they don’t count, eh!!!

Hope everyone can sleep tonight. Might be a bit toasty in my bed with my 10.5tog summer quilt…!!! Xx p.s. glad the voucher went to someone who has never won anything, I was hoping it would. Spread happiness around everyone, it needn’t cost you a penny, yet could mean millions to the recipient xx

Congratulations Jennifer. Enjoy your prize. Jack of all trades I reckon Paul, you do a fabulous job. I saw the paper offer this morning and jumped straight in for the one I had not got. Not told hubby yet though that another Clarity parcel will be arriving, I can blame you though I reckon. X X

Congratulations Jennifer! You can tell that you love your job Paul, and I’m sure it’s challenging and rewarding in equal measures. I’m quite surprised by the results of your poll – thought that stamps would win by a mile (maybe because I’m not a parcher!!!) x

Hello Paul thank you for sharing clarity towers team
I’ve ordered my pads earlier this is my 3rd clarity members sale parcel received my other one then received my 2nd one today plus my club envelope too
Too hot to craft so waiting for cooler days .
Thank you clarity towers for all your hard work you too Paul xxx

Hi Paul,
Congratulations to Jennifer, enjoy spending your voucher. That was a massive win for Groovi wasn’t it? Mind you I’m not surprised as it is so addictive ( as my bank balance shows!!) . Really can’t believe that you joined Clarity full time in 2016, doesn’t time fly! My club envelope arrived yesterday and I love everything especially the stamp. Looking forward to the shows this week and I know that I’m going to be on bread and jam for a while! Thanks Paul, Alison x

So great to hear about your journey since joining Clarity Paul and with a job so varied not a dull moment, and glad there are no regrets, though I was sure there wouldn’t be. Congratulations to Jennifer, enjoy your win! x

Congrats to Jennifer!
Clarity is lucky to have you Paul. Your enthusiasm for the product and love of what you do is very evident in all you do. I’m enjoying your posts while filling in for Barbara – so much so that I went hunting to find your blog and it seems that you have let it laps? Or, do you have another that I can’t find?
